WASHINGTON, D.C. —
The Brookings Institution is a nonprofit public policy organization based in Washington, DC. Its mission is to conduct high-quality, independent research to provide innovative, practical recommendations. This grant would provide support for its project to prevent the next wave of proliferation. It would consist of three components - (1) the Iran nuclear issue; (2) the role of Russia and China in dealing with proliferation; and (3) the likelihood that the potential "next tier" of nuclear-armed states will opt to acquire their own nuclear deterrents.

WASHINGTON, D.C. —
The Brookings Institution uses independent, fact-based research to generate recommendations to improve the governance of local, national and global communities. MacArthur has supported its work on various domestic and international issues: immigration, U.S. and global education, human rights, energy, global security, community development, nuclear proliferation, cities and metropolitan areas, foreign policy studies, and more. Along with a December 2013 International Programs companion grant, this grant contributes to the Second Century Campaign to increase Brookings' endowment, and establish an Endowed Metropolitan Policy Program Impact Fund.

WASHINGTON, D.C. —
This grant to the Brookings Institution's Metropolitan Policy Program will support research on the implementation of the federal Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which offers immigration status to certain undocumented youth. The project will analyze the behavior of immigrants eligible for DACA; the role of non-governmental organizations in identifying and assisting applicants; and the actions of the federal agency charged with implementing the program. Drawing on this data and analysis, the Metropolitan Policy Program will issue policy recommendations to guide future legalization programs for undocumented immigrants.
